The quick premise: Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is a long-running Friday night musical/variety show on the NBS network. Creator and producer Wes Mendell (Judd Hirsch) knows that the show has become a stale, unfunny shadow of its former self. and during a live broadcast, he interrupts the opening sketch about President Bush and goes off on a rant, criticizing the network and their shows about eating bugs and becoming Donald Trump. This pretty much guarantees his firing from boss Jack (Steven Weber), who orders new NBS president Jordan McDeere (Amanda Peet) to come up with a solution to fix the show.
Her idea? Hire back the show's original head writer and producer Matt Albie and Danny Tripp (Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford). Both were let go four years earlier. Now, they have become famous in the movie biz (Matt has just won the Writer's Guild award), but McDeere knows that she can get Danny to come back to the show because she knows his secret (it involves cocaine). Will Matt and Danny want to come back to the show that kicked them out?
Nieuwe NBC show, net de pilot gezien en vond het erg de moeite waard. Beetje Entourage-achtig maar dan minder comedy en meer drama, met acteurs als Amanda Peet, DL Hughley, en het is natuurlijk fijn om te zien dat Matthew Perry weer werk heeft gevonden.. De pop culture referenties zijn niet van de lucht, een spotje voor een Adult Swim achtige cartoon op een tv, NBC->NBS, Studio 60->SNL, etc.
Ik ga deze serie wel volgen
